Thank you dude...I have been doing reactions for a couple months and my channel is doing great. I am using a sony a7iii and wanted to maximize the quality, your video helped me achieve this. My only down fall is I live in a rural area where Internet is not so good so my upload times are going to be drastically longer...but its all good. thank you I subscribed.
I also live in a rural area. Starlink internet is the best new option we have by far. I can almost get the same speeds I used to get on cable internet in a suburb.
Thank you, You helped me and you explained every settings very clear and I can understand very easy.Not like others that just ask us to copy their settings
Thank you for this video! I did everything what you told me. Only 1 question... I went to output, recording, profile. I only have 2 options. Main or main10. Should i keep it on default main? I don't have high like on your video
If you have an NVIDIA GPU you should have NVENC as well. Also make sure that you're on "advanced" under output mode in the "Output" tab. You will see more options then.
Thanks for the video, it helped me improve the quality of my video. Just have a question about gaming on a 144HZ monitor, does it matter to have 144FPS ingame or should i set a cap at 60 FPS ?
@@Agenterino I do have 144FPS ingame but can it mess up with the recording quality if the max on youtube is 60 FPS. That's why i'm wondering if i should set frame rate limit to 60 ingame maybe
3:30 CQP is better than CBR (especially for not impacting your gameplay), so use CQP 18 for 1440p, and 30 if you have 10 bitrate colour in Nvidia Control Panel =)
For streaming you can use 4000-6000 bitrate, try with 6000 and see if it lags, if it does - try dropping it down until it doesn't up until 4000. That should be working fine.
The internet speed is 1GB and upload speed is 100 mg. 3090 24 GB graphics card. My processor is i7 6850k 2k monitor 2560x1440. How much Birate do you recommend?
These are just record settings. Streaming settings are different. I'd recommend watching my updated videos for both streaming and recording settings :)
So I followed your tutorial and I'm still getting jittery recordings... I have a 5600x and rtx4080. What's going wrong? I have clean drivers installed? Do you think clean or skinny drivers are affecting the NVENC encoder?
That is super strange. I have no idea what "clean" or "skinny" drivers are but if you have all the drivers updated and using NVENC NEW there shouldn't be any issues. I did have an issue one time where my footage was lagging due to it being saved to a HDD. Try moving your record path to the SSD and maybe that will fix it.
With regards to recording format at 1:35 Personally I prefer to record in mkv and then on the Advanced Tab in the Recording section I enable "Automatically Remux to mp4" That way if OBS crashes during a recording session the mkv file will save the data up to the point of crash whereas an mp4 has a high chance of being broken or completely lost... in that case you just remux the mkv to mp4 within OBS and quit stressing sabout lost media 😃 I usually delete the mkv's once the mp4 has been verified... IMO it's a cover your ass strategy
Even in fullscreen its hard to see the settings. Maybe you should skip the video of yourself and the background and crop the settings window? Great informational video though.
Just started a gaming youtube channel and am trying to upload my first video. I tried everything in your video but unfortunatily it does not work for me. When I upload the video to youtube, my videos only have 360p, 720p and 1080p 60fps but no 1440p allthough my I record in 1440p (it´s my monitors native resolution). Do I have to have a minimum number of subscribers for 1440p uploads or something?
UA-cam takes a very long time to process a 1440p video. Give it a few hours and you will see it then. What I usually do is upload a video and schedule it for the next day so YT checks everything in time :)
@@Agenterino 9 minutes, 3 gigabytes. That means that if you were to record a 2 hour long video, it would be 40 gigs. My videos last several hours, and so do most people that record gaming sessions.
@@giffel979 I'm not sure of your issue. If the game can otherwise do 144 it will be like normal as you record. OBS shouldn't have effect on that aside from maybe slight frame drops due to more things going on at once
Definitely didn't mention the part, where you need connection with enough upload speed (50Mbps ⬆up) just to set it to 50k but didn't say you need internet with enough capacity to handle that....
@@Agenterino ahh, I see, thanks for clarification 😁👍. Just to sum up: For recording: doesn't need internet connection and bitrate can be maxed out (f.e. 60k on bitrate). For streaming: need internet connection and bitrate has to be within internet capacity (upload).
@@tronosgamingwizard Yes, exactly. For streaming a lot of platforms have a bitrate cap so you should always double check before your turn it up to max.
@@Agenterino except for the fact that when I use GPU encoder (H.264 - RX 6700 XT [main gpu + was playing on it]), the video has less fps then with a CPU encoder (x264 - R7 3700X)

Are you using the exact same settings as the video? I also have a 3080 and have 0 issues. I used to have encoding issues before and as soon as I switched my recording path to my SSD it was all gone. It might be your slow HDD or something not being able to keep up with the footage saved. Let me know if that works for you!
@@Agenterino I think you misread his question, I have the same question... He asked whether he should stream 720p or 1080p with a 1440p monitor, and you said "yes"
@@nicholasdienstbier3694 It doesn't matter what monitor you have. I recommend 720p or 936p for fast paced games, for slower games and if you have guaranteed transcoding I recommend 1080p

Don't record in MP4!! As he already said you gonna loose the recording in case of an crash or a BSOD! There is an easy method to still get MP4 files without risking the hole Recording! Just record in MKV and then let OBS remux them to MP4 so you still have the MP4 File but also safety in case of crashes or simillar things! This even works automatically in the advanced settings is a toggle for auto remuxing.
@@Agenterino I think it is probably an issue with OBS itself, I did not download StreamLabs OBS but rather the other branch of it. Going to try on that one... The reason I think it is the program is because I even tested settings at 1080p and only uses 1000 bitrate (which is nothing lol) and it still stuttered in OBS...
@@DeSibyl I personally use SE OBS and like it the most. Also make sure your OBS is running as an Admin and have the footage save to SSD as sometimes the hard drive might be bottlenecking it.

Hey, I would of really liked to see an example within this video of what the quality looks like while using your settings.
Look at all of my uploads. I am using those settings all the time
